That book was awesome!

Based on the votes here and the feedback, today I ordered online through Ebay 11/22/63.

I would vote twice for "other" if I could. Blockade Billy and Cycle of the Werewolf are two of my favorites.
I also like "On Writing", King's book about his writing style.

Stephen King books are my jam! Although I haven't quite read them all, I'd say I have read about 90% of what he has published... Here is my top 10 list...
1. The Dark Tower series - Not even gonna try to separate this entry into the individual books... EPIC!
2. 11/22/63
3. The Stand
4. The Shining
5. Misery
6. The Green Mile
7. IT
8. Under The Dome
9. Pet Sematary
10. Revival
Honorable mentions:
- The Talisman and Black House (co-written by Peter Straub)
- Different Seasons (collection of four novellas, including three that were adapted into movies - Apt Pupil, Stand By Me and The Shawshank Redemption)
- Mr Mercedes

The long walk has been my favorite since I was a teenager. I try to read it once a year. I just finished IT and thought it was very good except for a part right by the end. Did anyone else read IT and think why the hell did that happen? Don’t want to spoil for anyone who hasn’t read it but if you did read it I think you will know what I’m talking about.

I am now 200 and some pages into 11/22/63. It is definitely a page turner, I am reading just a little each day (but sometimes this book is just really hard to put down.) Without giving anything away, so far I liked how this book made connections to It which is one of my favorite books by Stephen King (and also one of my favorite movies based on a Stephen King book.)

Another vote for 11/22/63 here! I just finished it about two months ago, and I am already contemplating reading it again.
For a good Other pick, I will cast a vote for The Long Walk, which was written under the Bachman alias. I've read it a couple times and enjoy it every time.

Earlier today I finished 11/22/63. It was definitely one of the best Stephen King books I have ever read, thank you guys for the recommendation!
The libraries here are still closed so the next book I read from that poll will probably be Rose Madder as I have a copy of it which I received as a present from family last December when I was in Portugal (thankfully the book is written in English and not in Portuguese as my ability to read Portuguese is very limited.)

Glad you liked it! It came out of the blue and became my favorite SK book. The mini-series on Hulu is a decent adaptation too, not 100% faithful but they never are. |
